Now that I'm pregnant I have to be somewhat cautious about the teas I drink. It's a bit frustrating, but apparently must be done. Most of the herbs on the "do not drink" list I wouldn't consider drinking for pleasure anyway. This month's teas seem to check out and look delicious. Tea Runners (Canada) Overview...

Friday Sock Co – July 2023 (Women’s)
It's summer, and seeing cows on socks reminds me that I need to stock up on hay. Every year it gets harder to find hay.

Friday Sock Co – July 2023 (Men’s)
I don't know why, but every time I see these socks I think they're sloths. I know they are ducks, but my brain always thinks sloths first. I really like the colour palette of this pair. It's very pleasing to my eyes. I almost wish it was my pair and not Tony's. Friday Sock Co... Continue Reading →
Tanit Dishwasher Tablets Review
Tanit Dishwaser Detergent Tablets I was interested to see that Tanit had branched out from their beauty line to include household products as well. I liked that these tabs come in biodegradable bags, but they're still quite pricey for what they are. I usually buy the Envirowise tablets, which are 80 for $18 compared to... Continue Reading →

DuraPaw – June 2023
I'm much more impressed with this month's box from DuraPaw. Though it's mostly just toys, each toy is unique, but can also be used for enrichment.
